The All American Apple Cake

Ingredients

CAKE: Whisk together first four ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in apples. Sift in flour, soda, salt and cinnamon gradually, beating until smooth. Batter will be stiff. Blend in nuts. Bake in greased 8x8x2-inch pan in a 350 deg. oven for 45 min., or until done. If making the buttermilk sauce, punch holes in hot cake with a tong-tined fork, moving tines gently back and forth, making even rows across cake. Spoon hot buttermilk sauce over hot cake until most of sauce is absorbed. Let stand at least an hour before serving. Any extra sauce may be spooned over individual pieces. BUTTERMILK SAUCE: Combine ingredients in a small saucepan; stir over medium heat until boiling. Remove from heat. ----
